[AGENT++] registeration of Sub agent to Master

[Frank Fock]

Please do not change #define or compiler options in this case.
The master agent and the subagents provided with AgentX++
are *examples* and must be customized for a production system.
If you need to use TCP on UNIX (which I would not recommend
because of security issues) then you should rewrite the code snippet
of your master agent so that it allows TCP connections, for example:

agentx->set_connect_mode(AX_USE_UNIX_SOCKET | AX_USE_TCP_SOCKET);


Best regards,
Frank
